Free Agency Question
I thought free agency pickups go from top guy on the list to bottom guy on the list if they're on the same claim list... I'm stuck with some pretty awful kickers this week as a result of this apparently not being the case (it took the claims from around the bottom of my 15 kicker list in two leagues) and not happy about it, though I acknowledge this could be my fault if I missed something.
Is this something everyone is aware of and I just blew it? If so, my bad... but I would certainly expect bids be processed from top to bottom within the same string.

From what Larry and Octane posted, there appears to be some kind of a programming error. It seems that if you have multiple players on a list with the same bid amount for everyone, it takes the last guy on the list as the primary bid.

Free Agency Question
I was afraid that might happen, so I never bid the same dollar amount within a Bid Claim. I always stagger the bids by $1 just to make sure. Shouldn't have to, but I do it anyway.

This is the first time to my knowledge and it indeed DID happen.
I have many examples because I made a lot of 1 dollar bids on long lists of people and got the bottom person in every case.
